Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a transmitting apparatus and a receiving apparatus of widescreen television signals capable of transmitting picture of a larger aspect ratio at high picture quality as compared with the existing television, while keeping compatibility with the existing television broadcast, within the transmission band used in the existing television broadcast.
  • both vertical high frequency helper signal and vertical temporal helper signal are transmitted as helper signals in the upper and bottom panel.
  • the upper and bottom panel has 120 lines per frame, and the helper signals are transmitted by usually compressing the time axis to 1/3 in the horizontal direction.
  • the helper signals are directly multiplexed in the upper and bottom panel, disturbing flicker is evident when seen on an existing receiver.
  • certain amplitude limitation or other restriction may be necessary, but the effect of the helper signals is sacrificed as a matter of course.
  • the portion having a higher correlation with the horizontal scanning line difference signal is extracted as a helper signal out of the signals transmitted in the center panel one field before, the helper signal is subtracted from the horizontal scanning line difference signal, and the amplitude of the horizontal scanning line difference signal is controlled on the basis of the helper signal, thereby decreasing the disturbance in the upper and bottom panel when received in an existing receiver.
  • a first technique of the invention by subtracting a helper signal from the horizontal scanning line difference signal, the correlation of the two is very high near the still picture, and the amplitude of the horizontal scanning line difference signal decreases, thereby reducing the disturbance in the existing receiver. Near the moving picture, to the contrary, it may be increased in a very rare case.
  • a second technique of the invention by controlling the amplitude of the horizontal scanning line difference signal, it is decreased where the amplitude is large, so that the disturbance in the existing receiver is reduced. In this case, where the amplitude of the horizontal scanning line difference signal is small, by increasing the horizontal scanning line difference signal, the S/N ratio can be improved.
  • the vertical temporal helper signal can be multiplexed and transmitted while visually decreasing the effect of disturbance of the upper and bottom panel when received by an existing receiver.

  • the vertical high frequency helper signal is limited of the horizontal bandwidth to 1.4 MHz by a horizontal LPF 107, and is modulated at 15 Hz by a 15 Hz modulator 108.
  • This modulator 108 is equivalent to inverting the signals in every frame.
  • This modulation process is given as pretreatment for adding this signal to the vertical temporal helper signal, and it is intended to facilitate separation of both signals at the receiving side.
  • the luminance signal is fed into a vertical LPF 109 and a vertical HPF 110.

  • helper signal by subtracting from the vertical temporal helper signal is executed as follows.
  • An interlaced scanning signal of 180 lines of the center panel produced from the sequential-interlaced converter 115 is delayed by one field in a field memory 116.
  • a vertical HPF 117 is intended to extract a certain component correlated with the vertical temporal helper signal.
  • This filter may be a simple constitution with coefficient at three taps of -1/4, 1/2, and -1/4. Its output is fed into a gain regulator 118, and usually a different gain value is taken depending on the polarity of the input signal. For example, 1/3 if positive, and 1/6 if negative.
  • This value is related with the gain of the vertical HPF 110, and depends on the amplitude of the vertical temporal helper signal.
  • the output of the gain regulator 118 is a correction signal.
  • this correction signal is subtracted from the vertical temporal helper signal produced from the sequential-interlaced converter 111.

Only the different parts from Fig. 1 are described below.
  • the vertical high frequency helper signal and the vertical temporal helper signal before subtracting the correction signal are added in the adder 119, and the time axis is compressed to 1/3 by reshuffling 120 to be reshuffled in the upper and bottom panel.
  • This multiplex signal is not modulated, but is synthesized with the center panel signal in the synthesizer 123.
